The whole brigade, with its four pieces of artillery, arrived at Annapolis on Sunday, May 5th, in twenty-eight hours from Trenton, and proceeded direct for Washington.
It is stated that the fourteen transports, with a strong convoy, Commander F. R. Loper, made a splendid appearance, steaming in two lines down the Chesapeake.
They had been greeted by a great Union demonstration as they passed along the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal.
They are armed with the MiniS musket, but are to have the Minie rifle and sword-bayonet.
The splendid stand of colors brought with them was presented to the regiment by the High School in Washington street, Newark, just prior to their departure for Washington.
This regiment is composed of some of the best men in the State, and in athletic appearance, as well as general soldierly deportment, are a credit to the country.--National Intelligencer, May 7, 8.
